Gene Kelly has always been his great example, It is an honor for Fred to play Don Lockwood in Singin' in the Rain.

His many credit include: Rum Tum Tugger in the Andrew Lloyd webber musical Cats. More than a thousand times he played this role in Hamburg (Germany) and Amsterdam (The Netherlands). In Barnum he had to learn acrobatics and took over the leading role from Mike Burnsyn many times.

For more than two years he played the part of Oscar on the Dutch National tour of Sweet Charity. With his own group "Steamheat" he was to be seen in many tv-shows. In 1995-1996 he saved a production of La Cage Aux Folles by taking over one of the leading roles only a couple of weeks before opening night.
